U.S.Defense Department Shares Crucial Hurricane Data.

The US will keep sharing weather data. This data helps track hurricanes using satellites. Experts were worried about losing this important storm information.

The Navy planned to stop giving the data. They said it was for better computer security. They also said the old system needed new technology.

Officials then said the data sharing would not stop. This happened after hearing from other groups. The data will now continue until the satellite program ends in 2026.

The data is very useful for weather experts. It gives details about storms that other satellites cannot. The information is important for knowing if people should leave before a hurricane.

Experts said losing the data would affect weather forecasts. It could also delay hurricane warnings. The data helps scientists watch Arctic ice, which is also very important.
